Public bug reported:

After installing Postfix 3.1.4, email delivery to Dovecot stops working.
In the Postfix log, I get:

status=deferred (unknown mail transport error)

If I re-make the removed lmtp->smtp symlink and revert the configuration
change made in master.cf, email delivery works correctly again.  It
looks like the smtp binary might act differently based on if it is
called as "smtp" or "lmtp".
